Scenery, costumes, lighting, props, placement of actors, everything
that appears in a scene falls under the umbrella term mise en scene. Since
a director is ultimately in charge of all this, he is referred to as a
metteur en scene, literally, putter of a scene.

USAGE:

"Forces inimical to democracy may be involved in fanning the flames of
violence, setting the mise en scene for the military to step in once
again."
